# --description--

Even without the color-stops, you might have noticed that the colors for the green marker transition at the same points as the red marker. The first color is at the start (0%), the second is in the middle (50%), and the last is at the end (100%) of the gradient line.

The `linear-gradient` function automatically calculates these values for you, and places colors evenly along the gradient line by default.

In the `.red` CSS rule, remove the three color stops from the `linear-gradient` function to clean up your code a bit.

# --hints--

Your `.red` CSS rule should have a `background` property set to `linear-gradient(180deg, rgb(122, 74, 14), rgb(245, 62, 113), rgb(162, 27, 27))`.

```js
assert.include(['linear-gradient(rgb(122,74,14),rgb(245,62,113),rgb(162,27,27))', 'rgba(0,0,0,0)linear-gradient(rgb(122,74,14),rgb(245,62,113),rgb(162,27,27))repeatscroll0%0%'], new __helpers.CSSHelp(document).getStyle('.red')?.getPropVal('background', true));
```
